چکیده

The use of composite materials has been increasing in the aeronautical industry for use in primary structures, such as wing and fuselage, where it can significantly save structural weight. Composite laminate optimization can be done as a discrete variable problem constrained by material strength, buckling and natural frequency. The solution for discrete variable problem based on combinatorial optimization techniques is too costly and alternatives must be explored. In the present work a simple methodology has been applied to determine the optimal stacking sequence and the number of layers for composite plates using a technique based on the use of discrete variables applied to the PCOMP property cards of composite laminates (typical of commercial finite element codes). The structural optimization software GENESIS ® is used to implement the ideas for the composite laminate optimization. A simple composite plate is optimized to validate the methodology.

Abstract. This paper deals with modal parameters identification using output-only data. A linear, time-invariant, finite dimensional mechanical system is considered, which is described by a stochastic state-space model excited by unknown operating forces. In this approach, the stochastic state-space model considers the errors due to state-variable and measurements, as integrant parts of the mod...

Computer vision, when used in open and unstructured environments as in the inspection of crops, requires the use of specific vision systems acquiring algorithms prepared for such situations. These algorithms work mainly with images composed of complex objects, textures, shadows and brightness. The present project aims to apply an omnidirectional vision system for mobile robot navigation in agri...

Water flow into unsaturated porous media is governed by the Richards’ partial differential equation expressing the mass conservation law and the Darcy ́s law. This equation may be written in three standard forms: the “h-based” form, the “θ-based” form, and the “mixed” form. Numerical aproximations based on different forms of this one-dimensional nonlinear equation can lead to significantly diffe...

Powerful robotic manipulators are needed in nuclear maintenance, field, undersea and medical applications to perform high accuracy tasks requiring the manipulation of heavy payloads. The nozzle dam positioning task for maintenance of a nuclear power plant steam generator is an example of a task that requires a strong manipulator with very fine absolute positioning accuracy. Absolute accuracy, r...
